Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Deep carious lesion with pulp exposure 2. Tooth previously planned for pulpotomy with uncontrollable bleeding lasting for more than 5 mins 3. Carious molar with the history of Spontaneous pain4. Carious molars with Chronic apical abscess or fistula 5. Pulpally exposed tooth with adequate periodontal and bony support 6.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1.Non restorable tooth 2. Signs of any internal or external resorption. 3. Root resorption more than 2/3rdof length. 4. Excessive tooth mobility. 5. Presence of pathological cyst in association with the primary teeth. 6. Medically compromised patient.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The study aims to assess the root resorption rate of primary molars obturated with combination of two materials in different concentrations. This call for proposal will give usthe capacity for studying the change in commonly used root canal obturating material. Theuse of CBCT is to find the definitive pattern of the root resorption. This study will allow usto obtain a better root canal obturating material with resorption rate similar to the roots ofprimary teeth.Timepoint: 6,12,18 and 24 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Combination of ZOE and Metapex with different concentration will have a promising result.The experimental (intervention) group as compared to the control group will have morefavourable resorption rate. Key Question Do the combination of ZOE and Metapex with different concentrations have resorption rate similar to physiologic resorption of primary teethTimepoint: 3 years
